…the best pick paths, and comply with Lockheed Martin’s inventory rules, which can be complex. For example, says Cook, under the IPV program, some inventory is owned by the program, and some is owned by the Air Force, so the robotic solution needs to abide by these ownership rules while still coming up with efficient pick paths. With the integration in place, Cook adds, warehouse workers don’t have to worry about whether picks are happening at the correct location. The full deployment took three months, including integration to the WMS and adjustment of some warehouse picking procedures and minor material…
